Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Masters of Wood-Engraving Not copies, but reproductions, by one or other process, have been given by Sotheby, Humphreys. And others: nevertheless I am bold to say that in no work on engraving in wood have 1 yet found any signs of choice or sufficient judgment. Good cuts and bad have been confounded together: and exact reproductions made from foul impressions, the ink over the sides of the lines too often supposed to be a portion of the engraving.
